I was born in northern Iowa, and was transplanted to Minneapolis the night Nixon was re-elected. I have lived in the twin cities (Minneapolis and St. Paul) ever since. I’m a technology professional by day, and a couch potato by night. I love gardening when it is warm in Minnesota. I also like the outdoors.

I was first exposed to black and white photography as an activity in elementary school. We had a teacher in the media center that took us all out to the park with our 126 cameras, and then showed us how to develop film. We each picked one picture from our roll to develop. I played around with 35 mm in high school, but it was too expensive for me to continue through college. I just started fooling around with photography again in 2005 when Santa (my lovely wife) bought me a Canon EOS 20D.

Please look through my work, and comment away. I can’t improve unless I hear from you.
